DESCRIPTION
hafas-m is an interface to HAFAS arrival/departure monitors such as the one available at https://reiseauskunft.bahn.de//bin/bhftafel.exe/dn.
It has three operating modes that depend on the contents of its argument.
Arrival/Departure Monitor
Show departures (or arrivals) at station, optionally filtered by date, time and mode of transport. station may be given as a station name or EVA ID. EVA IDs tend to be similar to, but not always identical with, UIC station codes. Output format:
scheduled departure (or arrival) time
delay, if known
trip number or line
direction / destination
platform (! indicates a platform change)
expected occupancy of first and second class, if known
Occupancy indicators are, from least occupied to fully booked: . o * !.
Location Search
List stations that match query or that are located in the vicinity of lat:lon geocoordinates with EVA ID and name.
Trip Details
List intermediate stops of journeyID with arrival/departure time, delay (if available), occupancy (if available), and stop name.
OPTIONS
- -a, --arrivals
-
Show arrivals instead of departures, including trains ending at the specified station. Note that this causes the output to display the start instead of the end station.
- -d, --date dd.mm.[yyyy]
-
Date to list departures for. Default: today.
- --json
-
Print result(s) as JSON. This is a dump of internal data structures and not guaranteed to remain stable between minor versions. Please use the Travel::Status::DE::HAFAS(3pm) module if you need a proper API.
- -l, --language language
-
Request free-text messages to be provided in language. See --list for a list of languages supported by individual HAFAS instances. Note that requesting an invalid/unsupported language may lead to garbage output.
- --list
-
List known HAFAS installations and exit. Use -s|--service to select an operator from this list for a HAFAS request.
- -m, --mot motlist
-
By default, hafas-m shows all modes of transport arriving/departing at the specified station. With motlist, it is possible to either exclude a list of modes, or exclusively show only a select list of modes.
To exclude modes, set motlist to !mot1,!mot2,...
To show them exclusively, set motlist to mot1,mot2,...
The mot types depend on the used service. Use
-m help
to list them. - -s, --service service
-
Request arrivals/departures using the API provided by service, defaults to DB (Deutsche Bahn). See --list for a list of known services.
- -t, --time hh:mm
-
Time to list departures for. Default: now.
- -V, --version
-
Show version information and exit.
EXIT STATUS
0 upon success, 1 upon internal error, 2 upon backend error.
CONFIGURATION
None.
DEPENDENCIES
Class::Accessor(3pm)
LWP::UserAgent(3pm)
BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
